[edit]Hello, I'm KAP03. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Transcendental equation, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -KAP03(Talk • Contributions • Email) 00:34, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Woodschain175. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Transcendental equation, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. -KAP03(Talk • Contributions • Email) 03:16, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

My reverts
[edit]Hello Woodschain175, Since you are new to Wikipedia editing let me explain more fully why I reverted your additions at Function composition and Inverse function. This had nothing to do with what you were trying to add to those articles, rather it involves a policy known as verifiability. Editors (contributors) are not allowed to add whatever they wish to the articles. Additions must already be published in reliable secondary sources and citations to those sources need to be given. The insistence on secondary sources is there to ensure that the wider academic community has vetted the concept and considers it valuable enough to write about, editors of Wikipedia should not be doing this themselves. Your arXiv paper fails to be a reliable source for two reasons. First, it is not published (that is, it has not been through the vetting process of an academic journal, just appearing on the web is not considered as being published) and secondly, even if it was published it would not be a secondary source ... someone other than yourself would have to say (in print) that it was correct and a valuable addition. This all means that Wikipedia is not the place to introduce new ideas, there are other venues on the web where that can be done. I hope this helps you understand what Wikipedia is all about. --Bill Cherowitzo (talk) 03:40, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
